    As much as I'm tempted by the challenge of soloing the BG games

    I'd miss out on all the party banter!

    I regret not completing all of the Baldur's Gate games. I think I'm going to have to track down I, II and whatever else you people recommend.

    For real.

    Great news if they're coming to Steam, too.

    Shit I didn't even make it thought Planescape and I feel bad because everybody says Planescape is so good.

    You are dead to me.

    There was an old ass game using vector based graphics where you'd fly one of them jet jobbers. Funny thing is, if you flipped the plane while you were low to the ground and ejected, it made a little blood spot. Someone actually took the time to code that in.

    Only flight sims I'm really keen on are the ones that happen in space where no one can hear me scream.

    I don't recall any jane's game being all that great.

    Longbow 1/2
    Jane's F-15
    Jane's F/A-18

    were amazing

    Didn't play the last two that I recall. I remember Longbow being a pain in the ass, but that might have been me.

    Also, and I'm pretty sure it was the Jane's version, but their A-10 Warthog game was a steaming pile.

    edit: must have been a different A-10 game because it's looking like Jane's mothballed theirs.

    There was no Jane's A-10 game, which still makes me pretty sad.

  • BroloBrolo Broseidon Lord of the BroceanRegistered User regular
    Yeah, I read previews on it and and interviews and usenet posts... and then it just vanished.

    The first character I ever played Baldur's Gate with was a fighter called Knobatron

    I was about eleven at the time, and I thought it was hilarious that people would be all "Knobatron! Save us from this horrible monster!"

    THAC0 can go to hell, though.

    I have spent a total of about 9-10 hours over the past couple of days modding BG1 and BG2 into Baldur's Gate Trilogy which puts BG1 and TotSC in the BG2 engine and combines them all into one game.

    Gonna create a god from scratch.

    I called mine Furoth

    I thought it was cool and then someone thought it was pronounced "fur" and I changed my mind

    I did a 3 man run(using my own chars) of BG2+tob with ascension and difficulty enhancements, it was a lot of fun with a smaller party. maybe being evil made it better.

    taking out improved demogorgon with only 3 people was cray cray

    I couldn't think of a good name. So I named my dude Jeff, which ironically turned out to be quite the exotic name in the forgotten realms.

    I wonder if it will become a tv show. That could be cool. Something along the lines of Xena or Hercules. It had enough interesting dialog and story to warrant a television adaption.

    I'll always fondly remember Baldur's Gate as that game I bought a pirated copy of at age twelve, from a store that assured me it was perfectly legal.

    Also, that game that I never played more than a couple hours of, a fact I've regretted ever since.

    Yeah I was terrified I'd either lose a CD or scratch one on the cardboard.
